For those special moments, we bake fresh treats and cakes, so your pet never misses out on a celebration. We’re dedicated to making sure your pets get the very best in nutrition and care.

Our Commitment

Dexter’s Deli was founded by Tori Rosay and her dog, Dexter, who shared a vision of providing natural, high-quality products for pets. Since opening, the store has remained an independent, neighborhood pet shop—proudly not part of any national chain. We take the time to research every product we offer, ensuring that every item in our store is backed by knowledge and passion for pets’ well-being. Whether it’s offering the latest in pet nutrition or finding that perfect gift for your furry friend, Dexter’s Deli is here for all your pet care needs.
